came out on top 10-6; (above right) a donation by Houston
businessman and alumnus Ron Mafrige was made during halftime
for $250,000, which will make possible the construction
of an new strength and conditioning facility for Bearkat
athletics; and (below) the bell tower was officially
dedicated during a ceremony on Saturday morning. All
